Божи и престоят му в Турция God and his stay in Turkey

DEAR ANGELS OF GOD! YOU MUST BE WONDERING BY NOW HOW OUR GREAT HERO GODIDAR IS. IN A FEW WORDS WE WILL SUM UP WHAT HE HAS BEEN THROUGH IN THE LAST FEW DAYS AND WHAT IS TO COME:

• Examination by a physiotherapist and subsequent physiotherapy - the opinion of the specialists is that Bozhi is doing surprisingly well, given the fact that for the last year he has only been lying down. His parents will do exercises at home. At this point, the most important thing is for Bozhidar to learn to hold his head up on his own, which is especially difficult because of its large size. In 3 months' time, when he and his family will have another check-up for the flap that was inserted, he will also have another consultation with a physiotherapist. If they have managed with the exercises that have been recommended now, they will give them new ones. Unfortunately, in order to progress in his motor development, Bozidar needs to gain more weight.
• Review with pediatrician - full blood work has been run and shows low hemoglobin and protein values. Bozhid tried 2 high protein milks, but they did not go down well with him. He will be prescribed a new one on Monday. In addition to the basic milk, Bozhidar will need another milk, again high in protein, and several vitamin supplements. It is very important for him to take in as much food as possible, with as few calories as possible, and for this reason Bozhidar will only be fed with the help of a probe through his nose.
• He is due to be seen by an ophthalmologistto assess the damage and to see if and what can be repaired.
• Heis also due to see a neurologist who will perform an EEG (electroencephalography) - to check how Bozhi's brain is functioning.
• Before Bozhi comes home to Bulgaria, his stitches will be removed. A thorough examination by a neurosurgeon, gastroenterologist, pediatrician and physiotherapist will be performed.
• Bozhidar and his family are staying in a hotel which is next to the hospital. He is feeling well, his parents take him out for a walk when they are not at check-ups. And Bozhi finds it a real pleasure to sleep in his stroller.

Thank you for your support, love, positive thoughts and faith in Boz!
